Firstly: Thanks to all those people who pointed me to the ZModem sources,
made offers to send it to me, or sent it to me. For those of you who
missed it, Zmodem (sz and rz) and can be found on your local 
comp.sources.unix archive. The XPR-Zmodem.library is on ab20, in
incoming/amiga/COMM.

Second - I can't get the thing to work :-) :-(

Not quite true - I do now have executables for sz/rz and sx/rx. sx works fine,
but the sz/rz combo don't: 

sz sends one packet, and then stops, time's-out 10 times straight and gives up. 

If I go the other way (Amiga->Sun), using rz, everything works fine, the file
is sent - until the last packet. The information screen says 'Sending EOF' and
just stops there. If I kill it, the file that has made it across is truncated
about one packet length from the end.

What gives ? My setup: A2000, running VLT4p846. I'm logged into our
Sun (running 4.1) via a terminal server with local telnet. Kermit is
quite happy to run here. I've used the default settings for ZModem, no ACKs,
putting files onto HD, and also onto RAM:

Any help GREATLY appreciated !
Thanks
